I'm trying to setup a simple MS SQL2005 database to mirror for HA. Here is the link I have used

http://searchsqlserver.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid87_gci1199004_mem1,00.html#setup

I did go through step by step and I'm stuck when I'm doing a restore of the database on mirror server the problem is " restoring " and it will stay for hours. The database is only 4MB

Is there other steps which can make mirroring MS SQL2005 better or faster.

Any help qould be great !!!

Thanks

That's how mirroring works. It will not get out of the restoring state until you failover to it.
